Olympic Women And The Media

This book examines how women athletes were represented in international media coverage during the 2004 Olympic Games. Through feminist theorising and qualitative textual analysis, the contributors discuss sexualisation, nationalism, success, failure and the [in]visibility of women athletes in newspaper reporting in Asia, Europe and the USA.
